Consignment notes

Send your package clearly on its way

The easiest way to prepare a consignment note is using one of our online shipping tools. When you have entered all the details, a consignment note will automatically be generated for printing on plain paper.

If you prefer not to use a shipping tool, you can contact us to request consignment forms and complete them manually.

The consignment number is your permanent reference number for your shipment. It can be used to track your shipment at any time.

Every shipment needs a consignment note with a unique TNT consignment number. It contains all the necessary details and accompanies your package through its journey.
